Our first two days:
Students in room 18 have been getting to know each other and have begun to build community while completing tasks that help me get to know their learning needs and personalities.
So far, we have completed writing tasks such as a letter to Ms. Laird, we have created a classroom charter, outlined our learning needs in order to be successful using the toilet paper game, and created a page of mathematical equations that help others learn more about us. It's been a busy couple of days! We will continue with goal setting and identifying areas we would like to be better at in preparation for our upcoming learning plans.
Today, the students requested we play a name game so that they could learn the names of the students of the opposite grade. We had a great time "Going on a Picnic" and some students decided to bring some strange things to our picnic. Ask your child what they decided to bring and how the game worked.
I'm really looking forward to our next couple of days as we have two STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) challenges planned in order to activate student thinking around these areas of knowledge and skill, as well as work on team building. I am also hoping to support students develop their perseverance and problem solving through these challenges, while also focusing on teamwork.
